You are invited to listen to how The Circular Design and Materials Research Group (DiMa) got its start, what we are working on today, what projects are currently underway and what the future holds.
Let’s see what impact DiMa’s research and development work has created over the years, both in Estonia and internationally. We will also take a closer look at the journey of the UPMADE platform, which grew out of DiMa’s activities, and its first major steps in the international market.
Margaret Aus, senior researcher at DiMa, and Triin Siimer, project manager, and Jeanine Ballone, founder of World Collective and UPMADE’s business model advisor, will talk about the work and experiences of the research group.
The event will be held in English.
